4 south Carolina Senator.
Netr Iorjh: World.

NtN ORR ~ Ujtu.
Senator Butler. Of South Carolina.
is often called the handsomes man
in the Senate. He is also the best
dressed man in that body. He
startled his brother Senators yester-
day and astonished the avenue prom
enaders with new style of overcoat.
1t is not coat st all, in fact, but q
cape-a large. thick cape of rough,
gray cloth, which is buttoned about
the neck, and falls to Just below the
elbow. Senator Butler is a very tall
man. and made rather striking ap.
pearance in his new garment. 1t is
not so large as the regular military
cape, but is much more like what
women wear across their shoulders.
Underneath this cape Mr.. Butler
wore dark frock coat, and the com.
bination was very peculiar. 1t gave
the appearance Of Macintosh top
coat, half black and half gray. As
Senator Butler started up to the
capitol, arrayed in his picturesque
garb. he attracted general attention.
He strobe along with the air Of man
conscious that lie was in the right
but a little ahead Of the Washington
fash on.

Not in the Penitentiary.
Netc Orleans Times Democrat.

Bill Chandler, by the grace Of God
in the United States senate instead
of in the peDitentiarv, has introduced
bill for the regulation of copgres,
slonal elections in the states Of South
Carolina, Florida, Mississippi and
Louisiana. He proposes TO set up a
complete system of registration, Yot-
ing, and especially returning under
the control Of the federal government.
In other words he proposes to estab-
lish a system of federal returning
boards" to declare the result Of state
elections.
This is the same Chandler who had
some experience with returning
boards in 1876. and who knows their
value in q close elec,ion; the same
Chandler who put millions Of dollars
of the peoples money into the pock.
cts Of contractors instead of into the
navy.

FIFTY BALES TO THE MULE.
Primus w. Jones Looks to Still Fur
ther Triumphs.

ALBANY, Ga.,December 19.-"How
is it possible for you to have made
twenty.eight bales Of cotton per mule
upon your plantation this year?'
was asked of Primus W. Jones, the
first bale man of Baker County.
The easiest thing in the world"
was the reply. If l live ten years
longer, l expect to make fifty balee
to every mule. Fifty acres is the
average number tended by mule
and it will be simple matter for me
to bring my land up to high state OF
cultivation that each and every acre
planted will produce its bale of cot
ton. AS said before, intensive farm
ing is going to become the salvation
of this country"
Colonel Jones believes in heavy
fertilization. He has an immense
shed 1O2 feet long by 62 feet wide in
which be pens up his stock at night,
and in which be makes his compost.
The lumber in his shed alone, exclu.
sive of nails, shingles, ETC., cost him
over 5000.

An Eloquent Tribute.
Colonel IngersolI's Remarks at the Bier
of Departed Friend.
Neu York World.

Mrs. Ida Knowles, Of Peoria, died
in this city on the 18th instant. She
was the wife of Howard Knowles and
daughter Of Richard H. Whiting.
Colonel Robert Ingersoll, being an
intimate friend O, the family, was in
vited to say few words over the
flower covered bier on the eve Of it's
removal to the west for interment.
In compliance with this request, Col.
Ingersoll made one of those eloquent
utterances for which be is celebrated.
He said:
My FRIENDS: Again we stand in
the shadow Of the great mystery-a
shadow as deep and dark as when
the tears Of the first mother fell upon
the pallid face of her lifeless babe
a mystery that has never yet been
solved. We have met in the pres.
ence of the sacred dead, to speak a
word Of praise, of hope, Of consola-
tion. Another life of love is now a
blessed memory--a lingering strain
of music. The loving daughter, the
pure and consecrated wife, the sin
cere friend, vino with tender faithful
ness discharged the duties of life,
has reached her journeys end.
A braver, more serene, more
chivalric spirit--clasping the loved
and by them clasped--never passed
from life to enrich the realm of death.
No field of war ever witnessed great.
er fortitude, more perfect, smiling
courage, than this poor, weak and
helpless woman displayed upon the
bed Of pain and death. Her life was
gentle and her death sublime. She
loved the good and ali the good loved
her. But there is this consolation
She can never suffer more; she can
never feel again the chill of death;
never part again from those she loves.
Her heart can break no more. She
has shed her last tear and upon her
stainless brow has been set the won.
drous seal Of everlasting peace.
When tie angel Of death~-tbe
masked and voiceless--enters the
door of home, there come with her all
the daughters Of compassion, and Of
Love and Hope remain forever.
You are about to take this dear
dust home--to the home of her girl.
hood, and to the place that was once
my home. You will lay her with
that have loved, that are
now at rest. You will lay her where
my father sleeps.
Lay her in the earth,
And from her fair and unpolluted
Let violets spring. flesh,

led this silent form Of dreamless
clay.
